Managing Succession – A Case Study L.O: to explain why managing succession can help conservation Starter: Why do we need to conserve species? http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips/biodiversity-and-the-human-implications/5505.html

Managing Succession – A Case Study Why do we need to conserve species? Rely on them! (food, shelter, medicines) Climate Change Interdependence of Species Ecotourism Right thing to do!

Managing Succession Human activities can have positive and negative impacts on succession. When humans intentionally stop an area from developing into a climax community, it is called a plagioclimax. Sometimes, because of endangered species on ‘BAP’ list
